STK15/Aurora2 is a centrosome-associated serine/threonine kinase, the protein levels and kinase activity of which rise during G2 and mitosis. STK15 overexpression induces tumorigenesis and is amplified in various human cancers and tumor cell lines. Thus, STK15 represents an important therapeutic target for small molecule inhibitors that would disrupt its activity and block cell proliferation. The availability of a robust and selective small molecule inhibitor would also provide a useful tool for identification of the potential role of STK15 in cell cycle regulation and tumor development. The authors report the development of a novel, fast, simple microplate assay for STK15 activity suitable for high-throughput screening. In the assay, γ-33P-ATP and STK15 were incubated in a myelin basic protein (MBP)-coated FlashPlate® to generate a scintillation signal. The assay was reproducible, the signal-to-noise ratio was high (11) and the Z′ factor was 0.69. The assay was easily adapted to a robotic system for drug discovery programs targeting STK15. The authors also demonstrate that STK15 is regulated by phosphorylation and the N-amino terminal domain of the protein. Treatment with phosphatase inhibitors (okadaic acid) or deletion of the N-amino terminal domain results in a significant increase in the enzymatic activity.

Cytoplasmic dynein-1 (hereafter dynein) is a six-subunit motor complex that transports a variety of cellular components and pathogens along microtubules. Dynein’s cellular functions are only partially understood, and potent and specific small-molecule inhibitors and activators of this motor would be valuable for addressing this issue. It has also been hypothesized that an inhibitor of dynein-based transport could be used in antiviral or antimitotic therapy, whereas an activator could alleviate age-related neurodegenerative diseases by enhancing microtubule-based transport in axons. Here, we present the first high-throughput screening (HTS) assay capable of identifying both activators and inhibitors of dynein-based transport. This project is also the first collaborative screening report from the Medical Research Council and AstraZeneca agreement to form the UK Centre for Lead Discovery. A cellular imaging assay was used, involving chemically controlled recruitment of activated dynein complexes to peroxisomes. Such a system has the potential to identify molecules that affect multiple aspects of dynein biology in vivo. Following optimization of key parameters, the assay was developed in a 384-well format with semiautomated liquid handling and image acquisition. Testing of more than 500,000 compounds identified both inhibitors and activators of dynein-based transport in multiple chemical series. Additional analysis indicated that many of the identified compounds do not affect the integrity of the microtubule cytoskeleton and are therefore candidates to directly target the transport machinery.
